You are a gift. [A giveaway.]

Yesterday I took the long way, with an iced green tea and Helplessness Blues by Fleet Foxes (best music for a drive, ever) and took the winding roads along the beach to attend an open house for my friend's gorgeous etsy shop, Heart Box Studio.

We met a few years ago through our old church. She was known as the Grayson-whisperer. She taught his class and he'd crawl into her arms and stay there. She is ridiculouslytalented, and I happen to like her very, very much.

Today her home was filled with cookies and cupcakes and beautiful people and art.

So, I did a little Christmas shopping while I was at the open house, and also bought a couple more copies of The Gift. She graciously signed one for my niece & nephew for Christmas and I bought an extra one to give away to one of you.

I also purchased several of her beautiful cards and will certainly toss one or two in there with the book, as well as some other fun things. How about it?

First of all, if those are your photographs...I have truly been touched by my "angel" this morning. Not sure if you knew I was headed to my 1st photog class, but I needed this post to encourage me to DO IT! Being here in Austin has given me a new meaning to life and seeing things from a different prospective. The items your friend creates are beautiful! I'm headed to her FB site NOW!

At first glance of this post I got crazy excited thinking this was a brick and mortar shop that I would gladly travel to because it looks SO awesome! Bummer it's just online...but gorgeous stuff! :) Thanks for the chance to win!

How stunning! As a crafter and writer myself, I wish my house looked one iota like that on its best day!! I checked out her blog and I liked her FB page, can't wait to see the new things she posts! Thank you for sharing! You too, have a gift...JenThewholebagofchips.com

Fell in love with the unique sign at first glance. I'm a sucker for "way cool handwriting". Then filling my eyes and heart with all the goodies that your friend created from her own heart! Thanks for taking us along for her open house!Joy!Julia : )jjriedel@honey.toast.net

Since seeing her work in Art Prize I am in love with all things Heart Box Studio. The message, the colors, the details. Amazing! I love the glimpses inside her open house too. Thanks for the opportunity to win Steph!

I tried to comment last night on my phone, but I don't think it posted, so I'm super sorry if I'm just missing it and post twice. I love the pictures and the message of this studio! Liked them on fb too! Fingers crossed we win the book! :)
